I don't know how you find all these great samples. Another really cool track... awesome dark vibe. Really sweet artwork as well, by the way!

totally banging track, those drums pulverize me to end times, real wicked lead synths!

all fits so well! great song design ! ☻

Missing that motif in the beginning but enjoying the synth vibes

Is anyone still out there?
Well hello there if you are taking some of your valuable time to read this! As the lyrics to this (probably)final song say, its been a long while……
The last time I checked into Soundcloud was maybe last December, wow…. 
I packed up for a holiday in Hawaii, ran the Honolulu Marathon, watched a volcano erupt, cast my dog’s ashes into a lava field and drank a tropical island's worth of cocktails while watching the sunset with my wife. And then returned a few weeks later decidedly unenthused about the Cat and my collaborator.
Gina had been making noises about returning to an on again / off again musical partner. That wasn’t unexpected and was actually a bit of a relief as I hadn’t been enjoying this for a while. Our last few songs had been tortuous to finish, including this one which was finally finished I think way back in October 2022.
Cat Came Back was always a lot like an arranged marriage - nothing at all in common but we kind of made it work 3 minutes at a time. But by late last year, it had become very hard work. And as you fellow Soundclouders know, outside of personal satisfaction, the rewards for all of that hard work are not very large. So, if the personal satisfaction is gone, there’s not a lot left to motivate oneself. 
In addition to that, there were a few rather large elephants in the room regarding my collaborator that I won't go into but nevertheless constantly weighed very heavily on my mind throughout our time together and I was finding these increasingly difficult to continue to ignore for the sake of making music together.
So anyway, when I returned a perhaps brief hiatus accidentally turned into this - silence for what, 7-8 months? Haven’t picked up an instrument in all that time and they currently sit in my garage gathering dust. Took up Chess, what a rabbit hole that is! Continued running. Listening as always to a lot of old jazz. Continued seemingly never ending renovations to my house. Spent a lot of time with my lifelong friend, William Styron’s Black Dog, as a matter of fact he's here sitting right by my side now. 
So what now? I sat down a few days back and listened to a few things that were unfinished as of late last year. Maybe its time to start again. Find a new collaborator or two? Anyone know anyone who might be a match?
In the meantime I’ll dip my toe in and check out what some of my favourite Soundclouders have been up to while I was away. I'm sure I've missed out on some really great stuff.

Minor Exotica (Turned To Black)

Enter the mesmerising world of "Mantodea," a musical journey that delves into a future concept of the female species metamorphosing into a captivating Praying Mantis hybrid. In this enthralling narrative, we explore the evolutionary phenomenon where these ethereal beings transcend the boundaries of mere mortals, embracing a newfound prowess, and a captivatingly mysterious existence.

Allow yourself to immerse in the hauntingly harmonies, embodying the strength and grace of the evolved Mantodea. The music's dynamic interplay symbolises the complex dance between these enchanting beings and their male counterparts.

Mantodea

Fast song

A boat, beneath a sunny sky
 Lingering onward dreamily
  In an evening of July
   Children three, nestled near
     Eager eye and willing ear
      
       Pleased a simple tale to hear
        Long has paled that sumer sky
         Echos fade and memories die
          Autumn frosts have slain July
           Still she haunts me, phantomwise
            Alice moving under skies
             Never seen by waking eyes
              Children yet the tale to hear
               Eager eye and willing ear
                
                Lovingly shall nestle near
                 In a wonderland they lie
                  Dreaming as the days go by 
                   Dreaming as the summers die
                    Ever drifting down the stream
                     Lingering in that Golden Gleam
                      Life, what is it but a dream

Linger In the Golden Gleam ~ Monaco '66

Azazel has always been a mysterious name that has aroused great curiosity. It is mentioned in ancient Jewish writings and has been the source of inspiration for much fiction, including some of Isaac Asimov's stories to which my song refers.

Summon the four hourseman from the speaker!
Let the bass bring on the darkness!

Thank you all creators. Keep passionately pursuing your higher self!

END TIMES

Huddled in a hallway making secret mindless chatter
A finger that points at you and the giggles that come after
Spreading all the latest news, those Lilliputians
Find their strength in number

Walk towards a noisy room, deathly quiet when you enter
Look across those shallow eyes that turn and smuggly whisper
Wait your turn in line, (I am waiting), but the teller
Shuts his wicket on your number

Had enough of this, small talk
The most useless information
Oh Small talk, making worse my situation
In ignorance grows, way out of control
When you're the last to know

Mutated seeds that snowball down the biggest mountains
Contaminated water flowing from never ending fountains
And it's carried on by all the empty lives
Living someone else's

Had enough of this small talk
The most useless information
Oh, Small talk, making worse my situation
In ignorance grows, way out of control
Had enough of this small talk
The most useless information
Oh, Small talk, making worse the situation
In ignorance grows, way out of control
And you're the last to know

When you're the last to know
Small talk, enough of that, small talk, ya,
Small talk, enough of that, small talk
Small talk, enough of that, small talk
